“You are right. I will ask the secretary to hire a cook later.” Pei Xiuyuan went straight to her after coming back from Germany. He had totally forgotten about the matter of hiring a cook.

 “Why hire a cook? I am free now, just let me cook!” Being a wife, cooking for him seemed to be the only thing she was able to do for him. If he hired a cook, then what else could she do?

 She thought that she was almost unable to repay him.

 “You cook for me?” His eyebrows rose.

 “Yes!” Lu Man looked at his face filled with disbelief. She suddenly thought of something. “Do you not like my cooking?”

 Was the breakfast she made for him this morning too bad to even swallow? If so, she would only have to give up her plan to cook for him.

 “No. You make delicious food! I love your food!” Pei Xiuyuan said, immediately.

 “Really? If you do not like to eat my food, you do not have to force yourself.” Lu Man was afraid that he was only comforting her.

 “I really like your cooking. I would not have finished all the food if I have hated it. I am just worried that you will be too tired.” He had never thought of wanting her to cook for him. The breakfast this morning, he just thought that it was a bonus for him for going straight to her after work.

 “It is not tiring at all. Besides, I have nothing to do at home.” She was glad that he liked her food.

 “Okay.” His dark eyes looked at her, his gaze became much warmer.

 There were two units on each floor in the apartment in Jinjiang district where they live. And there was a housekeeper for each unit. When they were back in their apartment, their housekeeper greeted them.

 “Mr. Pei, your parcels have arrived.”

 “Send them up later.”

 “Yes.”

 After they got into their unit, Lu Man put all the fresh produce into the refrigerator. When she heard the doorbell, just as she was about to get the door, Pei Xiuyuan had already pressed the button on the remote control and the door opened right away.

 Lu Man could not help but sigh, advanced technology was just so good.

 The housekeeper walked in, followed by several security guards, each carrying a lot of parcels in their hands. After they left, Lu Man looked at all the things in the living room. She was dumbfounded. She knew that they had bought a lot today, but it was too much when she saw everything put together.

 When she saw Pei Xiuyuan was already organizing the stuff, she hurried to finish her work and helped him.

 “Where should we put all the stuff? The guest room?”

 Pei Xiuyuan looked at all the stuff on the floor. “You pick a few things and put them into our bedroom first. Then, put the rest into the guest room.”

 He was not thoughtful enough. He had not prepared a dressing room for her.

 “Why don’t you put them all in the guest room?” It was not as if the guest room had not enough space.

 “If you put all of them into the guest room, then it would be inconvenient for you to get the stuff.”

 “I…” Speaking of which, Lu Man realized something. “Did you buy all this for me?”

 “Yes.”

 Lu Man’s lip twitched. “Didn’t you say you wanted to give these to someone as a gift?”

 “Yes, these are all for you,” Pei Xiuyuan replied nonchalantly.

 Lu Man was speechless.

 She never thought that these things were bought for her. Although she kept persuading herself that he was her husband and that they were already husband and wife, but subconsciously, he was still just a stranger whom she had met only twice. Who would have thought that a stranger would buy so many things for her?

 If she had known that these were for her, she would not have gone shopping! What did she need all the clothes for? She could not even finish wearing all the clothes if she wore them one set a day.

 Upon realizing that these were all for her, she had an urge to hit her own head. She was so stupid! His intention was so obvious when they were shopping, but she did not even realize it and thought that he just was buying these for someone else.

 One could even think with one’s toes. Nobody would give so many things to someone without having that person try them on!

 The more she thought, the more she was embarrassed. She could not help covering her face with both hands.

 “What’s wrong, my dear wife?” Pei Xiuyuan approached her. What was wrong with his wife?

 “Nothing. Please just let me hate myself for a moment.” She hated herself for her stupidity.

 1Pei Xiuyuan found her action very cute. “What do you hate yourself for?”

 “I hate my low intelligence.”

 “It is fine. It is lovely to be silly.”

 Lu Man looked up. “Are you comforting me?”

 This clearly showed that he thought she was stupid!

 “Isn’t it the way?” This man’s smile reached his eyes. Most women found this annoying.

 He sneered proudly. “If you despise me, it means you despise yourself.”

 If he married a woman with low intelligence, what did that mean? There was no need for a further explanation then.

 “I love you so much, why would I hate you?” His hand swiftly pulled her into his arms.

 1“Can we even talk properly?” She said while leaning against his chest.

 “It is more pleasant talking in this manner.” With his other hand, he removed the flower hairpin and let down her hair. Her long, black, and radiant hair flowed down gracefully.

 Lu Man had long, black, and soft hair. It looked like it belonged in a shampoo advertisement.

 Pei Xiuyuan loved her long hair. It felt like silk and was very comfortable to the touch.

 Lu Man felt awkward staying in his arms. Suddenly her eyes shone. An idea flashed into her mind. “Are these things refundable without affecting the resale value?”

 Pei Xiuyuan was playing with her hair. His hand stopped. “Why?”

 “I don’t need so many things. It’s better to return them. Keeping them is such a waste!” She just needed three skirts, a few short sleeves, and two pairs of jeans for the whole summer!

 “Why would they be useless?”

 “I cannot even finish wearing all of them if I were to wear one set a day.”

 “Wearing two sets a day is not a problem.”

 Lu Man lips twitched. “Mr. Pei, you are so wasteful!”

 “This is not wasting. I am just trying to be a good person to society!”

 “So you are saying that you are not wasteful by buying all these expensive clothes? You are being a good person to society by buying all these?”

 “What do you think the workers in the garment factory work for? How do the shopping malls make money? And what do the workers depend on for livelihood? They all depend on selling clothes. We buy them for the thousands of families to continue earning their livelihood. Isn’t it beneficial to society?”

 Lu Man’s lip twitched. She could not admire him more. It was clearly an act of wasting, but he still managed to glorify it!

 However, what he said indeed made sense that it was impossible to refute.

 By the time they finished organizing the stuff, it was already half-past ten at night. After shopping for the whole day, Lu Man was exhausted.

 She wished to take a hot bath, lie on the comfortable bed, and sleep through the night, but…

 The thought of sleeping in the same bed with him made the bed less attractive to her.

 “You tuck in first. I want to watch TV for a while.” She was looking for an excuse to leave.

 She was stopped as soon as she turned her body.

 “You must be tired after a day of shopping. Go and take a hot bath.”

 “I am not tired yet, I will watch TV for a while first. You can sleep first!”

 “You are not tired?” Pei Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows.

 “Yeah.”

 “Let’s do something else.” His handsome face came close to her. His smile was seductive.

 Lu Man instinctively took a step backward. “You… you…”
